Woop Woop When You Run Come Around, ‘Cause I Know You’re The Talk (or Not) of the Town, Yeah


So you know this song:

Of course you do, everybody does.  When it comes on, even the wall floweriest of the wall flowers, the leftiest of the two-left feet crowd, and that hipster with the really great neck muscles honed during countless nights of aloofishly nodding along to throbbing beats in crowded clubs gets on their feet, and starts breakin’ it down.

But did you know, the chick who sings this song died, like two years ago? Yeah, didn’t think so. In fact, no one does*. So here we all are, gettin’ down to this song in the club (or in that Target commercial) all the while, without a clue that the singer has died. Freaky, right?

*Sidenote: No one even actually knows the lyrics to this song either.  New Roomate and I didn’t even know they were singing in English…

    i do know what she’s singing about, and that she died. ive been looking for her song for the longes and just typed it in and WOW. she was in a terible car accident in Jamaica coming from one of her show. Sadly she was the only one died. we lost a talented sister may her sole rest in peace.
